The PhotoPhore is proud to announce the selected videos for the screening #PostReality, official selection for the 13th Athens Digital Arts Festival – ADAF 2017.
The screening will be part of the festival programmed from May 18 to 21, 2017, in Mitropoleos 23 str, in the historic center of Athens, Greece. The special screening will be done on May 18, from 18:00 – 19:00 at the second floor of the venue.
The festival is developed around the theme of #PostFuture. The PhotoPhore’s selection is focused on the sub-category of #PostReality.
#PostReality: Reality exists only in the present. Every person lives his/her reality here and now; it’s the context which everyone lives in and is influenced by. The existence itself is the main factor that modifies reality and, at the same time, in an endless cycle, the alteration of the context is the reason of new changes in the existence. Contemporary reality is always more full of inputs and possibilities: new technologies that removes time and space boundaries, scientific discoveries, the limitless power of imagination and the endless possibilities of actions, constantly open new scenarios.
Thousands submissions were reviewed, selecting the 13 best videos that show us the infinite possibilities that reality offers to overcome itself.
